Hi guyz. Those of you with KK Manatees, can I ask what you are using to caulk the inside seam of the cap rail. Last year I applied a tube of butyl rubber with a caulking gun and it seems the UV was too much for it here in FL. It kind-of cracked everywhere and was leaking before I knew about it. I've had great success with the butyl tape in all applications, but the stuff from the tube just doesn't seem to have the UV resistance. After finding that my stock (5 tubes) of Life Caulk, butyl rubber, and 3M 4200 were ALL dried and solid, I've finished the caulking with my remaining 3M 4000, but in past applications, was not impressed with the flexibility of this product.
Is there any product that you've found ideal for this area of flex? How long does an application last?
